Hi; I tried that and Excel chokes over that too. What I need is to get <Styles> with no namespace of any type set. Is there a way to do that?

However, I think you want your <Styles> element to be part of the default namespace of your workbook, so you'll have to add your <Styles> element with the correct namespace: styles = wb.addElement("Styles", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"); this should do the trick regards, Maarten David Thielen wrote: > Hi; > > > > I have a root node with a number of namespaces including one with no > prefix: > > wb = doc.addElement("Workbook"); > > wb.addNamespace("", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"); > > wb.addNamespace("o", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"); > > wb.addNamespace("x", "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel"); > > wb.addNamespace("ss", "schemas-microsoft-com:office:spreadsheet"); > > wb.addNamespace("html", "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40";); > > > > When I add an element to that element, I get: > > styles = wb.addElement("Styles"); è <Styles xmlns=""> > > > > How can I get rid of the xmlns=""? > > > > Thanks - dave > ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
